Turkey will probably not shine with resplendent vigor on tbe forthcoming map of Europe. Our local columns embrace extended reports of Fourth of July celebrations in Columbus and Franklin county, and correspondents give us accounts from several neighboring places. The oration of DeWitt C. Jones esq., delivered at the Capitol yesterday, is printed on the third page of this paper. . Everybody "talked horse" yesterday. The demand for newB from Louisville was almost universal; but when a brief dispatch came that Ten Broeck bad distanced Molly McCarthy in tbe first heat of tbe great four-mile heat contest, it took time to realize that the information could possibly be correct. The more ex ' tended report printed this morning will add to the general surprise. It seems that in the early part of the heat Ten Broeck disappointed the enthusiaBtio Kentuck- iana. and eave every indication of being disastrously defeated. But on the third mile, when Ten Broeok'e supporters were giving up, Mol- lie MoCarthy "broke down," and Ten Broeck - took the lead, rapidly in' creasing the distance between him and his competitor thereafter. Mollie was dreadfully distanced, her defeat be lng quite as signal as that which at one time seemed to be in store for Ten Broeck. The performance was not a remarkable one. The time was 8:19. Curious treat or Polaonone Insect, Virginia City (Nev) Enterprise.! The neat of the tarantula, occasionally found, exoitea the admiration of both old and young, and, indeed, nothing could be more ingeniously contrived. It is a subterranean house'about the sizs and shape of a cocoanut of medium growth, and is made of small pebbles ana grains ol sand clued together with some viscid matter. Its interior is lined with a Bilky material aa fine and white as satin. Just at the surface of the ground Is a circnlar opening nearly an inch in diameter. Into this fits a little door or lid made of sand and fine srravel clued together. This lid is lined with the same suten stun as me nesi proper, and at one side has a hinge made of many stranda of the same. . This door the tarantula can open and close at pleasure. When the lid is closed it is almost impossible to find the nest, as owing to the sand and gravel on its upper side it presents the same appearance as the surrounding ground, from which were gathered the materials of which it was constructed. A Hew Ballroad. A New Lexington correspondent of the Bhawnee Journal says : It is reported that work will be re earned on the Ohio Central railroad within a short time. Livingston, Post & Co., of New York, have taken a contract to noun it from Uhauncy to uucyrus. When completed this railroad will furnish direct connection to Columbus, Newark and Cleveland from this place, and open np the 8unday Creek coal fields. It will be a great advantage to the people of Ferry county. The opening np of the coal fields will also add largely to the permanent population of the connty. This road was commenced eight or nine years ago, and would have been finished then . had it not been for hardness of the times. Its speedy completion will be therefore balled with delight by all classes of clt-liens.The Texas wool clip this season is esti mated at 80,000,000 pounds.

The following are additional points of Prince Bismarck's conversation with the correspondent of the Times : The Prince said he saw that England would go to war on the question of Bulgaria, and therefore when, June 21st, negotiations between England and Russia broke down, he hastened to the rival Plenipotentiaries and oaused them to renew their negotiations. Bismarck supposed an agreement could be readily oome to on the question of the frontiers of Koumelis, etc. He did not believe any serious difficulty could ariss relative to Greece. The Greeks were doubtless an interesting people. If it were a question of chooBing between the Greeks and the Turks, he should prefer the Greeks as more civilized, out me Auras, aitnougn they would readily yield to Austria, who is great and formidable, would defend themselves with all their might against the Greeks. It was as if Germany, un der the first French Empire, had been required to yield to a small secondary State became sue naa Deen compenea to bud-mit to the mighty power of Napoleon. Bismarck added that, for his part, he would certainly accept all concessions which were obtainable for Greece, but he anticipated no Berious struggle in relation to Batoum. Bismarck said the past must not be forgotten; that the Russians had two bonds concerning it one from Turkey and the other from England. The Czar had bIbo spoken out on the Bubject. He (Bismarck) should certainly ne delighted to hear of Russia's concessions, bnt honed the Question would be dis cussed outside of the Congress, and laid before it entirely solved. It had always been asserted, even before England enter ed into an agreement, that she would never go to war for ASatoum. He trusted sne would not do so more readily now. He did not think Russia would be obliged to besiege Batouro'if the Congress ceded it to hi.. 81 wottld rtiabir ftnnt.nt h.roalt'. with blockading it. Discussing Ibe Congress. London, July 4. The Russian papers comment angrily on tbe reports mat England intends to oppose the cession of Batnnm. The St. Petersburg GoIob and others contend that in the event of ouch a course Russia ought to retire from the Congress. It is said the Congress has de-aided to elect a Prince of Bulgaria itself. It is stated that steps will be taken to oo-tain direct from Constantinople guarantees that the Porte will not repudiate tbe Minn nf if n Plenipotentiaries. The North German Gazette reports that new difficul ties have arisen between Austria ana Mon-lonoom Count Andrassy. it seem", is re solved that Montenegro shall not retain any position on the right Dana ol trie Bijara.

A Berlin correspondent Bays a large aou influential party In Italy support this view. The same correspondent reports that some sagacious politicians believe that Prince Bismarck's advocacy oi Austrian occupation is part of a vast political programme, according to which Austria is to become a great Holavonio power ana leave ner uer man provinces to Germany. Tbe Bowing nstcu. Tyiwnnw. July 4 The SboBwtecamettes nn the first heat for Steward's chal lenge cup easily. Dublin and Columbia fouled, but tne occewajcameiteB were mr ahead at the time. Columbia claimed the foul, and the referee decided in their favor and against the Dublin University ! Htfwara mosb aeieaiea jjto, oi iue Triton club of Newark, a quarter of a lonotit n the rlrBt beat ol tne uiamona ..htillrnoa sculls. Columbia asked to be allowed to row in the final heat of the Steward challenge cup, but the claim was disallowed. Henley never saw a lovelier day nor a more brilliant assemblage for its regatta. The meadows on both side" of tbe course were filled with people. The bridge was blocked with drays and carriages, while the river ewarmed with craft of every description. The gay dresses of the ladies and fancy, rowing costumes of tbe college boatmen made tne scene peculiar charming and picturesque. There was a sprinkling of Americans, but their presence was scarcely noticeable in the large number of natives. The race lor tne diamond sculls between George W. Lee, of the Triton club, Newark, N. J., and Edward Moss, present holder ot tne prize, was the first in which the Americans were interested. Both men started well, each hugging the Bhore on his own side. Lee, who had the inside track, soon took a slight lead, which he gradually Increased, steering well for threefourths of a mile. On nearing Poplar Point he bad a clear length ahead. TTom he skirted the Berks Bhore too close ly, nearly running into the bushes along tbe nana, mops cui airaigui buiubb ,w-wsrd the Berks shore, and as they straightened away, Lee was Been to have reduced his lead but still had the advan-He steered badly from this point.

He thought ne naa paseeu we wiuniug puiu, ,uu would not believe at first that he had not won the race. Two more strokes would have landed him aafely aa winner, but Max nnntinnine his couree. bad won by Inn than onefourth of a length. Both men were in great distress. Lee was 111 hefnrn and after the race. Time 9:08. The next event waB the first trial heat for tbe Steward's challenge cup. The Columbia College crew took the Inside position, near Berks ahore. The Dublin University boat was in tbe middle and the Shoewaecarraettae on the Bert side of the river. The boats got off at 1:30 p. m, The Shoewaecaemettaa misunderstood the starting signal and got off badly, while the Dnblins mad a fine start and soon lead tbe American boats by two lengths. The "Shoes" were far over on tbe Berks eide, while the other crews were close to the Barks shore, the Dublin crowding the Columbia's boat,intent on getting her water. Tbe Columbia rowed a good course in grand form, overtaking the Dublin hand over hand. Aa they rounded the point, the Dublin steered in ahore, crashing into the Colombia just as the latter was beginning to head the Irish crew, and this in spite of the shouts of the umpire: "Dublin, take your right course." The two boats disentangled themselves, and when they did so, Columbia was leading Dublin. Long before this, the "Shoes" had taken a deoided lead, having made np what they lost at the first by a uniform stroke of forty-aix from the start. At the time of the foul, which occurred at the end of the mile, they were one length and a quarter ahead of the fouling crewe. Upon witnessing the foul, the "Shoes" bow gave order to ease all, and dropping their stroke to forty, the crew proceeded easily, the Nodeau brothers pulling with one hand several lengths and waving their red oaps in answer to the cheers on shore. Notwithstanding the other crews had cleared opposite the grand stand, the "Shoes" raued their stroke to fortyeight to affoid the spectators an exhibition of their powers and passed the line many lengths ahead in the unusual time of 8 minutes and 4 seconds. Paddling to their boat house, the "Shoes" sprang upon the float with agil ity, cheerily offering to row the race over again if necessary. They were altogether aa fresh as when they started. The Co lumbian were also very fresh on leaving their boat and made a claim to be allowed to row again in the final heat, but this was disallowedby the Stewards on the ground that the "Shoes" were so far ahead they could not have been caught The Dublins did not deny tbe foul which was allowed in favor of the Columbias. The second trial heat for the Steward's cup was won by the London Rowing Club in eight minutes and twenty-three seconds, the Jesus College crew not rowing over the course, in order to save themselves for the fioal contest with the Columbias for tbe Visitors' Challenge Cup, while the London pair was scratched from the race for the silver goblets in order that the men might keep fresh for the raceto-morrow with the "Shoes." The time of the "Shoes" was eight minutes and four sec onds. It stood thuB on the Steward's time book for two hours, but after the London Bowing Club's time was announced, the "Shoes" time changed on the book to eight minutes and twenty-one seconds. 'Tbe Fonrlb Celebrated In Pari.. Paris, July 4. A grand concert wa" given to day in the music hall of Trocaa dero palace, in honor of tbe Declaration of American Independence. The Americans in Paris also had a pionic in the Bois de .cologne. About four hundred persons were present. Mr. Hitt, Secretary of the United States Legation, presided.

Berlin, July 4. The Congress sat three hours to day, chiefly occupied, it is understood, with questions of the Danube and indemnity. The chief points in re-unrl in the former were arrano-ed by pro viding for free navigation instead of the neutrality of the Danube, thus throwing it open to the commerce of all nations, it appears that neither the Batoum nor Greek question was touched. Fears are expressed that difficulties concerning the former may cause tbe prolongation 01 tne Congress, Papal Policy. Rome, July 'A. It appears that Pope Leo, after first making friendly overtures to the Emperor of Germany, has, by the advice of the ecclesiastics surrounding him, determined to adhere to the policy of Pius IX. The Cologne Guzstte takes an opposite view, and quotes in support thereof the assertion in the Vienna semiofficial correspondence, that the Papal Nuncio to the Court of Bavaria has been instructed to open negotiations with the Berlin government.

The Ten Broeck-McCartli j Bace at Louisville. The California Flyer Distanced in the First Heat How the Kentucky Crack Fright ened the Kentucklans. Boll Animala Used Up by : Ute Intense Heat, Running and Trotting at Long Branch and Chester Park, Tbe Ten Broeck-MeCarttay Baee. Louisville, Ky., July 4. When the drum tapped for the great four mile race to-day, Ten Broeck and Mollie McCarthy went by tbe string like twin ballets. Ten Broeck had the outside of tbe track, and the mare being on the inside ran to the front from the start. At the first quarter they were side by side and going gallantly on to victory. The halfmile did not change the positions, and as they moved onward, the thirty thousand spectators were held in perfect silence. Between the half and threequarters the mare got her nose ahead and a great oheer went up, and then as they came past the string and she again appeared in front, another cheer was beard. The mare was running easy. Ten Broeck was being driven hard and Walter urged t lm more and more. In the second mile Mollie seemed to be moving with such ease and Tea Broeok labored so hard that the Kentnckiana wavered by the thousands, and the certainty of California winning produced a dead silence. - At the half post in the second mile Walker nrged Ten Broeck quite hard, and Howser permitted him to come up side by eide. A Kentucky yell, such as was heard for miles, rent the air. So they ran past the threequarter, and coming Into the stretch Mollie brushed ahead again, paaaing the grand stand natt a length in the lead, "she will win sure," was beard in all directions, and tbe more confident grew the crowd as her easy movement continued, the horse still riving. . She passed the quarter, in the third mile, still leading, but the horse hung on to her close and msde the pace eo mur derous that many knew his bottom would have an effect ultimately. At the three-eighth pole of the third mile, McCarthy let up in her running, len Broeca lacing the track and passing her at the very mo ment his friends were giving him np. He increased rapidly the distance separating them. "The mare's broke down," was heard the field over, but she ran on and Walker pulling the horse slightly, was ahead on the third mile ten lengths and he increased all the time, and although her defeat was now certain, few realized how far and bow easy Ten Broeck would win, the little mare then galloping th "'";-h wlle,J be queen of the California, being at ie three-quarter pole wnen tne great Kentucky crack distanced her. The time was 8:19i. as follows: First mile. 1:49; second mile,3:45i; third mile, 6:53; fourth mile, B:l'Ji, more lhan a minute eiower than her beat record. Both horses were well used up, the heat being intense. There was no heavy betting, the CalifornianB and Eastern people who backed tbe mare being content with email investments of $3 to $50. Thirty thousand or more people were present. Lons Brancb Baces. Lono Branch, July 4. The at tendance at Monmouth Park to-day was very large. Ten two-year-olds started for the July stakes, five furlongs, and George Lorillard'a stable, Harold.

The exploding of fireworks and the discharging of firearms by the juveniles were only indulged in in a furtive and fitful way. One fire-cracker, however, started a fire in Fiftysecond street, causing a loss of $30,000. The day was very warm, and the aeaside and aubnrban resorts were crowded. In Washington the day passed quietly. In Boston and throughout New England, there was a very general observance of the festival. The LeOrofse game la Boston for tbe championship of the United States, betvrea the Bavenawood club of New York and the Union Athletic club of Boston, was won by the latter.

WitKissiBBB. Pa.. July 4. The second day's proceedings of the centennial commemoration of the battle and massacre of Wyoming ware of a very interesting nature. The three railroads which intersect this Elace ran long trains from local points every alf hour and brought throngs of people to swell tbe influx of visitors from distant points who had attended the ceremonies at Wyoming on tbe previous day. Many of these were nnabl. to obtain lodgings, and spent tbe whole of the night In the streets.

The grand procession of military, the Grand Army of the Republic, tire department, trades organizations, and other societies, was an imposing affair. It started promptly at 11 o clock, ana was two nours passing a given point, and was dismissed after passing in review before President Haves. Governor Hartranft and a distin guished company. There were many tableaux in the procession, representing life a hundred vears a co. aod also illustrating the past, present and mture ana tne growm oi tbe industries and development of tbe valuable mineral deposits. In the afternoon a reception was held at the residence of Mr. Onnntngham. On the verandah were the President s and uovernors parties ana on tbe lawn in front were assembled fully ten thousand people. Mr. B. M. Hoyt, Republican candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, introduced President Bayes, who said he bad not come there to do much speech making, and could only here, under more pleasant and favorable circumstances, reiterate the sentiments he had wished to convey at Wyomingyesterday under the heated tent to the Barring crowd of dusty and boister ous people, which were, that the settlers of tbe Western lrontter were undergoing ine same trials to-day that beset the pioneers of Wyoming a century ago, ana wnose virtues we are now commemorating, and that his idea was to treat the savage with equity and justice; deal with him In good faith, and, if war with him for any cause was necessary, give our army commanders facilities to conduct it successfully. The President remarked that be did not wish to encroach upon the time of the other sneakers who were to follow, and that if, uu tike his predecessor In om.ee, tienerai tirant, aiu not Know enougn to not Bay "j Governor rial trmft followed, and briefly alluded to the obiect of the demonstration, l.hA nntrintir nmneer sett ers. soa tne results of their patriotism.

Attorney General Divens is said to have oompleted an opinion to the efi'eot that the i-ignt Hour law must be construed as compelling the Government to pay ten hours' wsgee for eight boon' work. A man in New Orleans out of employment stuck his arm out of a street-car window and had it broken by another paaaing car, aod the verdict of the jury gave him $7500 damages. Now all lazy tramps and loafers In the city ride on street cars. Bogardm, the American champion, who recently beat Pennell, the well known English shot, is going to have a match with Aubrey Coventry at Brighton, England, In August. They are to shoot at fifty birds each from five traps for 500 a side, with power to increase the stakes to 1000 a sides by mutual consent. Creditors are quarreling over the property of Jacob Kline, drowned in the Licking river at Zineeville, June 30. One of the creditors obtained an attachment on the goods at his boarding house, which Constable Hannom attempted to execute, but was resisted by M. Eoglander, tbe landlord. Several altercations ensued, resulting in the defeat of the officer. It appears that the noted horse Barue, in trotting a mile in 2:14, at East Saginaw, Friday, was accompanied by a running mate, the two being attached to a skeleton wagon, the running mate, of course, pulling the load, while Goldsmith Maid, while trotting the fastest mile on record in 2:14, at Boston, was urged on by a running mate attached to a separate sulky. The Pittsburg Commercial Gazette sayet effort is in progress to stop the drill and limit production. It will be well if now the producers can fairly combine among themselves 10 limit the production to the demand, This will relieve them of their troubles, and secure and maintain a regular price, for any neceesary period of time. We have urged this now accepted truth stesdily, and are gratified that it is bow appreciated, though we sincerely regret the low price of oil.

Except for the peal of the contraction of the xtesump- tion act the Secretary of the Treasury would now be obliged lo cancel $1,120,- 000 of the United States legal tender notes, the clause repealed having directed tbe cancellation ol United states notes to the amount of 80 per cent, of new bank notes isBued.

The word picnio is eminently suggest ive of peace and good will, but the an nouncement that the Irish Catholic Union has issued Invitations for a picnic on the 12th oi July at Montreal, and that ley 000 Irishmen from various parts of Can ada have promised to attend, causes the authorities of Montreal no little anxiety. They apprehend a collision between the Catholics and Orangemen, which will transtorm the picnio into a tierce tree fight. Availing herself of her forewarning, Montreal iB forearming herself against threatened mischief, and the knowledge of this fact will, doubtless, prevent any serious outoreai. From a statement prepared at the Treasury Department, June 27, it appears that the aggregate amount of four per cent. bonde issued up to date is over $94,000,-000, of which about $25,600,000 are coupon bonds held at home and abroad, and about .0U0.00U are registered.

Some three hundred Indiana were in attendance at the fandango last evening, It waa the wind-up of the affair. The dancing began at five o'olock in the even ing and continued until sundown. They then had an intermission to rest and wait for the rising of the moon, when they went at it again in grand style. During the recess last evening Walker ittver Pi' utea. who had an eve to business, opened a monte game. Captain Bob, who is the great poker sharp of the tribe, was fool enough to tackle this monte game and soon was cleaned out to his last dime. All the money he had won at poker since tbe commencement of the fandango was gobbled up at one fell swoop by the monte Bnarps, - it waa ntnted among these Walker river strangers that the fandango was a irica oi captain sod to briog all tne loaiana to Virginia, ana then clean them out at poker. They, therefore, brought with them a little game of their own, and when Bob had gathered in all the shekels of the tribe went for him and oleaned him. GENERAL GRAMT. The Bepublleaaa Parly Tbe Man and Parly to Whom the Halloa will Turn la ISSO. Extract from speech of Emory Storri at I 111- bol eiate uouvenuon.J There arises, of course, in every mind the inquiry. How are the dangers which threaten us to be prevented 1 How are the evils which already surround us to be remedied? There ia one great party in this nation which, with all its faults ia patriotic to its core, and that, I need not tell yon, ia the Republican party. Great applause. Its rank and nie are patriotic, and its rank and file are much stronger than ita leaders. No leader ever lived strong enough to lead the Republican party one single etep in a direction which it does not desire to go. JMo plat-forniB were forced down the throats of the rank and file. In its great march, it has again and again thrown its leaders overboard, and its march has been accelerated by the riddance. Its track to day is maiked by the skeletons of departed leaders. It can not pause in its progress to heal up the wounda of the disaffected, or apply liniments or lotions to the discouraged. The man who can not take the long stride which the rank and file adopt must join some other or ganization where the step is shorter. Laughter. The procession will not1 wait for him. Applause 1 It takes but a little time and a very shurt experience lo clear up whatever clouds gather about this party, or about the men who are really its representatives. Probably in the whole history of this country no man has met a greater now of calumny and slander than General Grant. Cheers, And no man has so splendidly, so effectively, bo ailently silenced it. I speak of General Grant because in a preeminent degree, he possesses those masculine qualities of patriotism, or rather those masculine qualities of patriotism characteristic of the rank and file of the party seem to ba embodied in him. He is masculine in his strength, masculine in his methods of thought, masculine in his Btrong, vigorous sense of justice, masculine in his courage to do what he believes is the right thing to do. Applause. I am quite well aware that this iB no place to sound trnmnetfl for anr man. Certainly I need not sound his. Cheers. May 1 leave him there as far as the mention of his name ia concerned? But I am constrained to say something further to ask you eome questions. When the good citizen appre ciates the conaition in wnicn we are threatened by moba and commnntem and asrarianism in all its dangerous forms possibly be may be insecure in nia own pereon ne is very aib w revuive iu uis muii 'ut'wiflirtfm'anriJal-res Si ffie"r.puo: lio, at the head of affairs, in whose hands my personal security is safe ? There are not over 1,000,000 men in this country really expecting to be President. Laughter. The other millions, my fellow-citizens, are to day asking themselves this question, and they have answered it and they are answering it every hour. The laboring man inquires : Shall 1 be permitted to labor without in terference irom mobs and mob violence t Shall the wages of my labor be secure ? Ia there in this country any one man whom the nation can place at the head of ts affairs who will see to it. so far aa he is concerned, that, in all these, I may be secure ? All these laboring men are ask ing themselves these questions, and they have answered it. Property asks this question. Capital of all kinds makes the inquiry. Nay, every good citizen, each for himself, is revolving in his own mind to-day, and has been for monlbe past, whe is there of all others in this country who placed at its head, will see that the great essentials of life, liberty, property, the due execution of all the lawe, shall be protected and oarried out? I think, my fellow-citizens, that the question haa been an-Bwered. Applause. I think that of these millions, each has named to himself the man. I don't name him. It is a conundrum. Can you guess it ? Stories of Animal Saenclly. Boston Traveller.! Colonel Rice, now of General Miles's Fifth United States Infantry, waB in com' panv on Tuesday last with a gentleman ol our acquaintance, and the conversation naturally turned on Indian warfare and frontier experiences, tbe day being tbe anniversary of the Custer massacre. Colonel Bice, who has seen eervice in Indian campaigns, related a striking anecdote concerning: tne sagacity oi a norse wnion lost its rider in tho fatal fight. Borne months after the battle a steamer having on board a portion of the Fifth Infantry was pursuing her voyage near tne moutn of the Powder river, on the Yellowstone. The men on the lookout, one of whom waa the famous scout Buffalo Bill, who was scouring the surrounding country lor indications of hostile Indians, saw in the distance an object moving slowly toward the boat, They anxiously Bcruttmieri it aa it continued to approach, supposing that it might be the advance oi a Doay oi hnstiles. Their suspicions were not lessen- d when thev discovered it to be a horse, which might De that oi a scout watoning their movements or signaling the advance nf the enemy in force. When the animal came to the bank of the river, however, it was seen to be unmounted and alone, and on approaching the boat it neighed and pranceu, mauuuswus; ever Diau w, .,, juj. ful recognition. The boat waa stooped, and when the horse was taken on board it waa found to bear the brand, "Seventh Cavalry." The place where it was found waa seventy or eighty miles in a bee line from the Bcene of the busier ngut. ine animai nu evi dentlv seen or heard the boat in the die tance. ana recornizea it aa a sign ui uivii ization, and beins) tired of ita free life in the wilderness, gladly embraced the opportunity of returning to its accustomed :..:j..i .i.a, auuee. Anotner aiuuicu iuuiuou, nuwn- iiw the strength of the second nature ira planted bv human companionship in do mestic animals was related by Colonel Rice. Upon one of the steamers used in the campaign against the Sioux was a small dog belonging to General Miles, which one day fell overboard and was riven nn for lost. Six months afterward as the same steamer waa returning tbe singular sight was witnessed of a email dog and a wolf trotting along the shore in friendly companionship. The dog was recognized as that lost overboard. The steamer was stopped and the dog taken on board delighted to meet with his old friends, while the wolf on the approach of the vessel ran back In the bush. The intelligent animal had apparently antici pa ted the return of the boat and patiently awaited his restoration to nit master. New Advertisements.

Turkey will probably not shine with resplendent vigor on tbe forthcoming map of Europe. Our local columns embrace extended reports of Fourth of July celebrations in Columbus and Franklin county, and correspondents give us accounts from several neighboring places. The oration of DeWitt C. Jones esq., delivered at the Capitol yesterday, is printed on the third page of this paper. . Everybody "talked horse" yesterday. The demand for newB from Louisville was almost universal; but when a brief dispatch came that Ten Broeck bad distanced Molly McCarthy in tbe first heat of tbe great four-mile heat contest, it took time to realize that the information could possibly be correct. The more ex ' tended report printed this morning will add to the general surprise. It seems that in the early part of the heat Ten Broeck disappointed the enthusiaBtio Kentuck- iana. and eave every indication of being disastrously defeated. But on the third mile, when Ten Broeok'e supporters were giving up, Mol- lie MoCarthy "broke down," and Ten Broeck - took the lead, rapidly in' creasing the distance between him and his competitor thereafter. Mollie was dreadfully distanced, her defeat be lng quite as signal as that which at one time seemed to be in store for Ten Broeck. The performance was not a remarkable one. The time was 8:19.

The following are additional points of Prince Bismarck's conversation with the correspondent of the Times : The Prince said he saw that England would go to war on the question of Bulgaria, and therefore when, June 21st, negotiations between England and Russia broke down, he hastened to the rival Plenipotentiaries and oaused them to renew their negotiations. Bismarck supposed an agreement could be readily oome to on the question of the frontiers of Koumelis, etc. He did not believe any serious difficulty could ariss relative to Greece. The Greeks were doubtless an interesting people. If it were a question of chooBing between the Greeks and the Turks, he should prefer the Greeks as more civilized, out me Auras, aitnougn they would readily yield to Austria, who is great and formidable, would defend themselves with all their might against the Greeks. It was as if Germany, un der the first French Empire, had been required to yield to a small secondary State became sue naa Deen compenea to bud-mit to the mighty power of Napoleon. Bismarck added that, for his part, he would certainly accept all concessions which were obtainable for Greece, but he anticipated no Berious struggle in relation to Batoum. Bismarck said the past must not be forgotten; that the Russians had two bonds concerning it one from Turkey and the other from England. The Czar had bIbo spoken out on the Bubject. He (Bismarck) should certainly ne delighted to hear of Russia's concessions, bnt honed the Question would be dis cussed outside of the Congress, and laid before it entirely solved. It had always been asserted, even before England enter ed into an agreement, that she would never go to war for ASatoum. He trusted sne would not do so more readily now. He did not think Russia would be obliged to besiege Batouro'if the Congress ceded it to hi.. 81 wottld rtiabir ftnnt.nt h.roalt'. with blockading it. Discussing Ibe Congress. London, July 4. The Russian papers comment angrily on tbe reports mat England intends to oppose the cession of Batnnm. The St. Petersburg GoIob and others contend that in the event of ouch a course Russia ought to retire from the Congress. It is said the Congress has de-aided to elect a Prince of Bulgaria itself. It is stated that steps will be taken to oo-tain direct from Constantinople guarantees that the Porte will not repudiate tbe Minn nf if n Plenipotentiaries.

Tbe Bowing nstcu. Tyiwnnw. July 4 The SboBwtecamettes nn the first heat for Steward's chal lenge cup easily. Dublin and Columbia fouled, but tne occewajcameiteB were mr ahead at the time.

Htfwara mosb aeieaiea jjto, oi iue Triton club of Newark, a quarter of a lonotit n the rlrBt beat ol tne uiamona ..htillrnoa sculls. Columbia asked to be allowed to row in the final heat of the Steward challenge cup, but the claim was disallowed. Henley never saw a lovelier day nor a more brilliant assemblage for its regatta. The meadows on both side" of tbe course were filled with people. The bridge was blocked with drays and carriages, while the river ewarmed with craft of every description. The gay dresses of the ladies and fancy, rowing costumes of tbe college boatmen made tne scene peculiar charming and picturesque. There was a sprinkling of Americans, but their presence was scarcely noticeable in the large number of natives. The race lor tne diamond sculls between George W. Lee, of the Triton club, Newark, N. J., and Edward Moss, present holder ot tne prize, was the first in which the Americans were interested. Both men started well, each hugging the Bhore on his own side. Lee, who had the inside track, soon took a slight lead, which he gradually Increased, steering well for threefourths of a mile. On nearing Poplar Point he bad a clear length ahead. TTom he skirted the Berks Bhore too close ly, nearly running into the bushes along tbe nana, mops cui airaigui buiubb ,w-wsrd the Berks shore, and as they straightened away, Lee was Been to have reduced his lead but still had the advan-He steered badly from this point.

Lee was 111 hefnrn and after the race. Time 9:08. The next event waB the first trial heat for tbe Steward's challenge cup. The Columbia College crew took the Inside position, near Berks ahore. The Dublin University boat was in tbe middle and the Shoewaecarraettae on the Bert side of the river. The boats got off at 1:30 p. m, The Shoewaecaemettaa misunderstood the starting signal and got off badly, while the Dnblins mad a fine start and soon lead tbe American boats by two lengths. The "Shoes" were far over on tbe Berks eide, while the other crews were close to the Barks shore, the Dublin crowding the Columbia's boat,intent on getting her water. Tbe Columbia rowed a good course in grand form, overtaking the Dublin hand over hand. Aa they rounded the point, the Dublin steered in ahore, crashing into the Colombia just as the latter was beginning to head the Irish crew, and this in spite of the shouts of the umpire: "Dublin, take your right course." The two boats disentangled themselves, and when they did so, Columbia was leading Dublin. Long before this, the "Shoes" had taken a deoided lead, having made np what they lost at the first by a uniform stroke of forty-aix from the start. At the time of the foul, which occurred at the end of the mile, they were one length and a quarter ahead of the fouling crewe. Upon witnessing the foul, the "Shoes" bow gave order to ease all, and dropping their stroke to forty, the crew proceeded easily, the Nodeau brothers pulling with one hand several lengths and waving their red oaps in answer to the cheers on shore. Notwithstanding the other crews had cleared opposite the grand stand, the "Shoes" raued their stroke to fortyeight to affoid the spectators an exhibition of their powers and passed the line many lengths ahead in the unusual time of 8 minutes and 4 seconds. Paddling to their boat house, the "Shoes" sprang upon the float with agil ity, cheerily offering to row the race over again if necessary. They were altogether aa fresh as when they started. The Co lumbian were also very fresh on leaving their boat and made a claim to be allowed to row again in the final heat, but this was disallowedby the Stewards on the ground that the "Shoes" were so far ahead they could not have been caught The Dublins did not deny tbe foul which was allowed in favor of the Columbias. The second trial heat for the Steward's cup was won by the London Rowing Club in eight minutes and twenty-three seconds, the Jesus College crew not rowing over the course, in order to save themselves for the fioal contest with the Columbias for tbe Visitors' Challenge Cup, while the London pair was scratched from the race for the silver goblets in order that the men might keep fresh for the raceto-morrow with the "Shoes." The time of the "Shoes" was eight minutes and four sec onds. It stood thuB on the Steward's time book for two hours, but after the London Bowing Club's time was announced, the "Shoes" time changed on the book to eight minutes and twenty-one seconds.

Berlin, July 4. The Congress sat three hours to day, chiefly occupied, it is understood, with questions of the Danube and indemnity. The chief points in re-unrl in the former were arrano-ed by pro viding for free navigation instead of the neutrality of the Danube, thus throwing it open to the commerce of all nations, it appears that neither the Batoum nor Greek question was touched. Fears are expressed that difficulties concerning the former may cause tbe prolongation 01 tne Congress, Papal Policy. Rome, July 'A. It appears that Pope Leo, after first making friendly overtures to the Emperor of Germany, has, by the advice of the ecclesiastics surrounding him, determined to adhere to the policy of Pius IX. The Cologne Guzstte takes an opposite view, and quotes in support thereof the assertion in the Vienna semiofficial correspondence, that the Papal Nuncio to the Court of Bavaria has been instructed to open negotiations with the Berlin government.

The Ten Broeck-McCartli j Bace at Louisville. The California Flyer Distanced in the First Heat How the Kentucky Crack Fright ened the Kentucklans. Boll Animala Used Up by : Ute Intense Heat, Running and Trotting at Long Branch and Chester Park, Tbe Ten Broeck-MeCarttay Baee. Louisville, Ky., July 4. When the drum tapped for the great four mile race to-day, Ten Broeck and Mollie McCarthy went by tbe string like twin ballets. Ten Broeck had the outside of tbe track, and the mare being on the inside ran to the front from the start. At the first quarter they were side by side and going gallantly on to victory. The halfmile did not change the positions, and as they moved onward, the thirty thousand spectators were held in perfect silence. Between the half and threequarters the mare got her nose ahead and a great oheer went up, and then as they came past the string and she again appeared in front, another cheer was beard. The mare was running easy. Ten Broeck was being driven hard and Walter urged t lm more and more. In the second mile Mollie seemed to be moving with such ease and Tea Broeok labored so hard that the Kentnckiana wavered by the thousands, and the certainty of California winning produced a dead silence. - At the half post in the second mile Walker nrged Ten Broeck quite hard, and Howser permitted him to come up side by eide. A Kentucky yell, such as was heard for miles, rent the air. So they ran past the threequarter, and coming Into the stretch Mollie brushed ahead again, paaaing the grand stand natt a length in the lead, "she will win sure," was beard in all directions, and tbe more confident grew the crowd as her easy movement continued, the horse still riving. . She passed the quarter, in the third mile, still leading, but the horse hung on to her close and msde the pace eo mur derous that many knew his bottom would have an effect ultimately. At the three-eighth pole of the third mile, McCarthy let up in her running, len Broeca lacing the track and passing her at the very mo ment his friends were giving him np. He increased rapidly the distance separating them. "The mare's broke down," was heard the field over, but she ran on and Walker pulling the horse slightly, was ahead on the third mile ten lengths and he increased all the time, and although her defeat was now certain, few realized how far and bow easy Ten Broeck would win, the little mare then galloping th "'";-h wlle,J be queen of the California, being at ie three-quarter pole wnen tne great Kentucky crack distanced her. The time was 8:19i. as follows: First mile. 1:49; second mile,3:45i; third mile, 6:53; fourth mile, B:l'Ji, more lhan a minute eiower than her beat record. Both horses were well used up, the heat being intense. There was no heavy betting, the CalifornianB and Eastern people who backed tbe mare being content with email investments of $3 to $50. Thirty thousand or more people were present. Lons Brancb Baces. Lono Branch, July 4. The at tendance at Monmouth Park to-day was very large.

The exploding of fireworks and the discharging of firearms by the juveniles were only indulged in in a furtive and fitful way. One fire-cracker, however, started a fire in Fiftysecond street, causing a loss of $30,000. The day was very warm, and the aeaside and aubnrban resorts were crowded. In Washington the day passed quietly. In Boston and throughout New England, there was a very general observance of the festival. The LeOrofse game la Boston for tbe championship of the United States, betvrea the Bavenawood club of New York and the Union Athletic club of Boston, was won by the latter.

The three railroads which intersect this Elace ran long trains from local points every alf hour and brought throngs of people to swell tbe influx of visitors from distant points who had attended the ceremonies at Wyoming on tbe previous day. Many of these were nnabl. to obtain lodgings, and spent tbe whole of the night In the streets.

The grand procession of military, the Grand Army of the Republic, tire department, trades organizations, and other societies, was an imposing affair. It started promptly at 11 o clock, ana was two nours passing a given point, and was dismissed after passing in review before President Haves. Governor Hartranft and a distin guished company. There were many tableaux in the procession, representing life a hundred vears a co. aod also illustrating the past, present and mture ana tne growm oi tbe industries and development of tbe valuable mineral deposits. In the afternoon a reception was held at the residence of Mr. Onnntngham. On the verandah were the President s and uovernors parties ana on tbe lawn in front were assembled fully ten thousand people. Mr. B. M. Hoyt, Republican candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, introduced President Bayes, who said he bad not come there to do much speech making, and could only here, under more pleasant and favorable circumstances, reiterate the sentiments he had wished to convey at Wyomingyesterday under the heated tent to the Barring crowd of dusty and boister ous people, which were, that the settlers of tbe Western lrontter were undergoing ine same trials to-day that beset the pioneers of Wyoming a century ago, ana wnose virtues we are now commemorating, and that his idea was to treat the savage with equity and justice; deal with him In good faith, and, if war with him for any cause was necessary, give our army commanders facilities to conduct it successfully. The President remarked that be did not wish to encroach upon the time of the other sneakers who were to follow, and that if, uu tike his predecessor In om.ee, tienerai tirant, aiu not Know enougn to not Bay "j Governor rial trmft followed, and briefly alluded to the obiect of the demonstration, l.hA nntrintir nmneer sett ers. soa tne results of their patriotism.

Creditors are quarreling over the property of Jacob Kline, drowned in the Licking river at Zineeville, June 30. One of the creditors obtained an attachment on the goods at his boarding house, which Constable Hannom attempted to execute, but was resisted by M. Eoglander, tbe landlord. Several altercations ensued, resulting in the defeat of the officer. It appears that the noted horse Barue, in trotting a mile in 2:14, at East Saginaw, Friday, was accompanied by a running mate, the two being attached to a skeleton wagon, the running mate, of course, pulling the load, while Goldsmith Maid, while trotting the fastest mile on record in 2:14, at Boston, was urged on by a running mate attached to a separate sulky. The Pittsburg Commercial Gazette sayet effort is in progress to stop the drill and limit production. It will be well if now the producers can fairly combine among themselves 10 limit the production to the demand, This will relieve them of their troubles, and secure and maintain a regular price, for any neceesary period of time. We have urged this now accepted truth stesdily, and are gratified that it is bow appreciated, though we sincerely regret the low price of oil. The new National Bank note circula tion taken ont during tbe month of June amounts to $1,400,000. Except for the peal of the contraction of the xtesump- tion act the Secretary of the Treasury would now be obliged lo cancel $1,120,- 000 of the United States legal tender notes, the clause repealed having directed tbe cancellation ol United states notes to the amount of 80 per cent, of new bank notes isBued. As it is, however, the legal tender note circulation can not be dimin ished, while there is no limit to the issue of bans notes except tbe ability to lend tbem. The word picnio is eminently suggest ive of peace and good will, but the an nouncement that the Irish Catholic Union has issued Invitations for a picnic on the 12th oi July at Montreal, and that ley 000 Irishmen from various parts of Can ada have promised to attend, causes the authorities of Montreal no little anxiety. They apprehend a collision between the Catholics and Orangemen, which will transtorm the picnio into a tierce tree fight. Availing herself of her forewarning, Montreal iB forearming herself against threatened mischief, and the knowledge of this fact will, doubtless, prevent any serious outoreai. From a statement prepared at the Treasury Department, June 27, it appears that the aggregate amount of four per cent. bonde issued up to date is over $94,000,-000, of which about $25,600,000 are coupon bonds held at home and abroad, and about .0U0.00U are registered.

Some three hundred Indiana were in attendance at the fandango last evening, It waa the wind-up of the affair. The dancing began at five o'olock in the even ing and continued until sundown. They then had an intermission to rest and wait for the rising of the moon, when they went at it again in grand style. During the recess last evening Walker ittver Pi' utea. who had an eve to business, opened a monte game. Captain Bob, who is the great poker sharp of the tribe, was fool enough to tackle this monte game and soon was cleaned out to his last dime. All the money he had won at poker since tbe commencement of the fandango was gobbled up at one fell swoop by the monte Bnarps, - it waa ntnted among these Walker river strangers that the fandango was a irica oi captain sod to briog all tne loaiana to Virginia, ana then clean them out at poker. They, therefore, brought with them a little game of their own, and when Bob had gathered in all the shekels of the tribe went for him and oleaned him. GENERAL GRAMT. The Bepublleaaa Parly Tbe Man and Parly to Whom the Halloa will Turn la ISSO. Extract from speech of Emory Storri at I 111- bol eiate uouvenuon.J There arises, of course, in every mind the inquiry. How are the dangers which threaten us to be prevented 1 How are the evils which already surround us to be remedied? There ia one great party in this nation which, with all its faults ia patriotic to its core, and that, I need not tell yon, ia the Republican party. Great applause. Its rank and nie are patriotic, and its rank and file are much stronger than ita leaders. No leader ever lived strong enough to lead the Republican party one single etep in a direction which it does not desire to go. JMo plat-forniB were forced down the throats of the rank and file. In its great march, it has again and again thrown its leaders overboard, and its march has been accelerated by the riddance. Its track to day is maiked by the skeletons of departed leaders. It can not pause in its progress to heal up the wounda of the disaffected, or apply liniments or lotions to the discouraged. The man who can not take the long stride which the rank and file adopt must join some other or ganization where the step is shorter. Laughter. The procession will not1 wait for him. Applause 1 It takes but a little time and a very shurt experience lo clear up whatever clouds gather about this party, or about the men who are really its representatives. Probably in the whole history of this country no man has met a greater now of calumny and slander than General Grant. Cheers, And no man has so splendidly, so effectively, bo ailently silenced it. I speak of General Grant because in a preeminent degree, he possesses those masculine qualities of patriotism, or rather those masculine qualities of patriotism characteristic of the rank and file of the party seem to ba embodied in him. He is masculine in his strength, masculine in his methods of thought, masculine in his Btrong, vigorous sense of justice, masculine in his courage to do what he believes is the right thing to do. Applause. I am quite well aware that this iB no place to sound trnmnetfl for anr man. Certainly I need not sound his. Cheers. May 1 leave him there as far as the mention of his name ia concerned? But I am constrained to say something further to ask you eome questions. When the good citizen appre ciates the conaition in wnicn we are threatened by moba and commnntem and asrarianism in all its dangerous forms possibly be may be insecure in nia own pereon ne is very aib w revuive iu uis muii 'ut'wiflirtfm'anriJal-res Si ffie"r.puo: lio, at the head of affairs, in whose hands my personal security is safe ? There are not over 1,000,000 men in this country really expecting to be President. Laughter. The other millions, my fellow-citizens, are to day asking themselves this question, and they have answered it and they are answering it every hour. The laboring man inquires : Shall 1 be permitted to labor without in terference irom mobs and mob violence t Shall the wages of my labor be secure ? Ia there in this country any one man whom the nation can place at the head of ts affairs who will see to it. so far aa he is concerned, that, in all these, I may be secure ? All these laboring men are ask ing themselves these questions, and they have answered it. Property asks this question. Capital of all kinds makes the inquiry. Nay, every good citizen, each for himself, is revolving in his own mind to-day, and has been for monlbe past, whe is there of all others in this country who placed at its head, will see that the great essentials of life, liberty, property, the due execution of all the lawe, shall be protected and oarried out? I think, my fellow-citizens, that the question haa been an-Bwered. Applause. I think that of these millions, each has named to himself the man. I don't name him. It is a conundrum. Can you guess it ? Stories of Animal Saenclly. Boston Traveller.! Colonel Rice, now of General Miles's Fifth United States Infantry, waB in com' panv on Tuesday last with a gentleman ol our acquaintance, and the conversation naturally turned on Indian warfare and frontier experiences, tbe day being tbe anniversary of the Custer massacre. Colonel Bice, who has seen eervice in Indian campaigns, related a striking anecdote concerning: tne sagacity oi a norse wnion lost its rider in tho fatal fight. Borne months after the battle a steamer having on board a portion of the Fifth Infantry was pursuing her voyage near tne moutn of the Powder river, on the Yellowstone. The men on the lookout, one of whom waa the famous scout Buffalo Bill, who was scouring the surrounding country lor indications of hostile Indians, saw in the distance an object moving slowly toward the boat, They anxiously Bcruttmieri it aa it continued to approach, supposing that it might be the advance oi a Doay oi hnstiles. Their suspicions were not lessen- d when thev discovered it to be a horse, which might De that oi a scout watoning their movements or signaling the advance nf the enemy in force. When the animal came to the bank of the river, however, it was seen to be unmounted and alone, and on approaching the boat it neighed and pranceu, mauuuswus; ever Diau w, .,, juj. ful recognition. The boat waa stooped, and when the horse was taken on board it waa found to bear the brand, "Seventh Cavalry." The place where it was found waa seventy or eighty miles in a bee line from the Bcene of the busier ngut. ine animai nu evi dentlv seen or heard the boat in the die tance. ana recornizea it aa a sign ui uivii ization, and beins) tired of ita free life in the wilderness, gladly embraced the opportunity of returning to its accustomed :..:j..i .i.a, auuee. Anotner aiuuicu iuuiuou, nuwn- iiw the strength of the second nature ira planted bv human companionship in do mestic animals was related by Colonel Rice. Upon one of the steamers used in the campaign against the Sioux was a small dog belonging to General Miles, which one day fell overboard and was riven nn for lost. Six months afterward as the same steamer waa returning tbe singular sight was witnessed of a email dog and a wolf trotting along the shore in friendly companionship. The dog was recognized as that lost overboard. The steamer was stopped and the dog taken on board delighted to meet with his old friends, while the wolf on the approach of the vessel ran back In the bush. The intelligent animal had apparently antici pa ted the return of the boat and patiently awaited his restoration to nit master. New Advertisements.
